Most of the problem with obesity has to do with income and the cost of
real food and the rampant availability of fast food in cities.

It's cheap to stuff your face with fast food crap. Going to a store
to buy fresh fruit, vegetables and meat is freakin' expensive.

The lower our income, the worse our diet. You can't even feed your
family crap on minimum wage, which is becoming the case for more and
more Americans. Average age of fast food workers at McDonalds is 29.

Welcome to the new America, where money is held by the rich and the
rest of the country can go **** themselves.


It is obvious you don't eat a lot of fast food.

For the price of McDonalds for 4 ($20), I can buy a whole chicken ($6)
a few potatoes ($2) and a package of fresh broccoli ($2) and still
have $10 left over.
I won't even try to explain how much rice and beans that will buy.

People go to fast food joints because they are lazy.


Exactly, but they have special "vegetable vouchers" coming out now above
and beyond the traditional food stamps. It's really just another way to
move cash, but we won't tell anyone


Please show us how it's "just another way to move cash" to get people to
eat healthier. On the contrary, it's less costly to American taxpayers
if the population is healthy.
